Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles-Spring Edition, will commence from March 16 to 18 at Hall 5.2 Shaghai’s National Convention & Exhibition Center. This is follows Messe Frankfurt’s successful conclusion of Heimtextil Frankfurt in January 2016. March is the peak sourcing season in China for finished products, particularly bedding items, and this market has been growing rapidly in recent years. According to market research conducted by CCPIT, 2015 domestic bedding sales in China reached $49 billion, an increase of 2.7 per cent compared to 2014. Reflecting this growth, a number of top domestic bedding suppliers, including Bejirog, Beyond Group, Esteem Home, Fuana, Luolai, Menglan and South Bedding Series have confirmed their participation in March’s Spring Edition.

Held alongside this fair are four other textile events. These include Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring Edition, Yarn Expo Spring, PH Value and CHIC, and together these five fairs create an unrivalled platform in the textile industry to meet potential buyers. The Autumn Edition of Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles will be held from August 24 to 27, 2016 and is expected to extend from three to four days in order to assist exhibitors to take advantage of these strong market conditions prevailing in China.

Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring & Autumn Editions are organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK); the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT; and the China Home Textile Association (CHTA).
